Yes. It seems there is at least one bad entry in a
lists/<listname>/request.pck file. If you can identify which one, you
can just remove it or replace it with an 'empty' (24 byte long) one.
You can probably identify which one by visiting the admindb page for
each list in turn until you hit a bug or wierd result.
Or maybe you can see a problem with bin/dumpdb.
